The article discusses how machine learning models can be trained and fine-tuned for search retrieval tasks. It highlights the importance of data quality, quantity, and relevance in training these models effectively. The article also explains the use of pre-trained language models such as Transformers and their fine-tuning on domain-specific data to improve search results' relevance and ranking. Furthermore, it delves into the specifics of fine-tuning LLMs for search retrieval using contrastive loss and presents performance improvements achieved through this approach.
